Atomic structure. Artwork depicting the classical model of the structure of the atom. In the centre is the nucleus,made up of protons and neutrons. Orbiting this are several electrons,three in a small inner shell and six in a larger outer shell. This model is known as the Bohr Model,after the Danish physicist Neils Bohr. Modern physics regards this model as too simplistic - the quantum interpretation regards atomic electrons as inhabiting fuzzy clouds determined by probability wave functions rather than discrete particles in regulated shells | |
